Führende Nullen

Ich war gerade dabei, eine README-Datei für ein Skript zu schreiben, das wir für einen Kunden entwickeln. Dabei kam der folgende Satz vor:

Bei dem Text "führende Nullen" muss ich irgendwie immer an die Regierung denken :P

While getting lunch out of the freezer, I was glad I've made it a habit to touch the lid of the freezer with a metal pen first -- there was a huge spark which startled me quite a bit!

This evening, four ticket inspectors got on the bus while it was waiting at the traffic light after having left Harburg station.

When they got to this one guy, he refused to show his ticket but claimed he had one. He kept ranting about how the bus driver wasn't allowed to open the doors in between bus stops and how they shouldn't have been there.

On an unrelated note, Stella was up and about when I came home today. She'll be helping Hella with the buffet at the concert tomorrow.
